Re: HELP - Informix-SE for DOS under OS/2 Warp

In article <3fkt5m$9ko@boris.eden.com>, tmorizot@eden.com says... >Try using STARTSQL to start the engine in normal mode and ISQL instead >of PISQL. Thanks for the info. The STARTSQL angle sounded like a promising lead, but I have no such command on my system. I reviewed the installation instructions, and there's no option to install a real mode version. You said that you haven't used the DOS version in a while. Maybe they dropped this feature. ISQL does, however, offer both a real and a protected mode. >...Anyway, Informix protected mode (which is causing the error you see) >talks directly to extended memory. I picked up a tidbit in an OS/2 forum on CompuServe that programs that use VCPI DOS extenders or access extended memory directly will not run under OS/2. If this is true, I'm outta luck.
